you may think this problem is more related to Linux forum.. but i feel this is right place for this..

i have solaris 10 and Fedora core 6..
i'm currently in FC 6.
trying to mount ufs partition of solaris on linux..

[root@localhost ]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:37:32 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

[root@localhost ]# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes

/dev/sda1 * 1 2 12096 be Solaris boot
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.

/dev/sda4 2565 9729 57552862+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 2565 9729 57552831 8e Linux LVM

i tried mount

mount -t ufs -o -r -o ufstype=sunx86 /dev/sda2 /mnt/b/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

dmesg | tail -5
ufs was compiled with read-only support, can't be mounted as read-write
